<body>
<p>This action would provide several minor but necessary corrections to the NPDES regulations to update obsolete or incorrect language or correct cross-referenced citations. The Agency has become aware of several instances where cross-referencing has not occurred correctly, leading to potential confusion regarding which regulatory provisions apply. In addition, the EPA has become aware of inadvertent deletions or typographical errors in the NPDES regulations that should be corrected.</p>
